THE PANHANDLE THIEVES.
Another Important Arrest-A sensational
Rumor Set AfiOat.

Rumor Set AhOat.
PIrrsBURG, PA, April l6.-lt IS quite
probable that no hearings will be held in
the cases of the Panhandle robbery, on
Monday. More than half Of the prisoners
have already waived a preliminary hearing
for trial. and it is believed the Others will
take the same action. This will enable the
defendants to get their eases before the
Grand Jury in time for the present term OF
Court. Within the past twenty-four hours
a number of the prisoners have made vol
untary confessions to the attorneys Of the
railroad company, but the nature OF the
disclosures have not been given to the pub
lie. 1t is claimed. however, that they
tally almost with the facts as learned
by the detectives in their researches.
It is thought that before the trial comes of
nearly all the men will have admitted
their part in the robbery. Another and
very
IMPORTANT ARREST
was made to-day. II. C. Busby, who
escaped from the officers at DennisOn, o.,
on Monday, by jumping from q train, was
recaptnred this morning and lodged in
Jail. He is regarded by the detectives as
one of the Tingleaders. Conductor Black,
who has been since released on bail, re-
turned to the city this morning, and is
ready to stand trial.
A SENSATIONAL REPORT
An afternoon paper to-day publishes q
sensational item in which it is stated that
q secret meeting Of employees of the Pan
Handle road was held last night to con-
slider a bold and decisive move to force
their railway associates to some kind OF
compromise. 1t is proposed to demand a
guarantee that no further arrests will be
made, and all men now employed on the
road be completely exonerated from any
completely in the alleged thefts.
Should these guarantees not be
forthcoming, the men decline to
enter again into the company's service un-
der suspicious resting on them until all
the cases are settled. Demands will also
be made respecting certain parties Of those
under arrest claimed to be innocent of the
charges against them, and respecting others
a guarantee that they wilEnOt be kept in
Jail all summer, but that they would be
tried Immediately. If the demand is not
complied with strike will be ordered and
all trains will be sidetracked. Twenty
four hours notice will be given of the in
tentiOn TO strike. Another meeting will
be held tonight or tomorrow when def
mite action will be decided on. The paper
claims that their authority for the story is
beyond question.

GAINESVILLE to-day presents the appearance
OF a town that had yesterday been played
upon by shells from D hostile army. Here
and there a wall has been thrown inward,
leaving the building and its contents q
crumbled mass of brick, mortar, fur
niture and debris of all kinds.
The roofs Of some houses have
been crushed in, and more have been lifted
and now eumber the streets. Other build
ings have been wrenched and twisted on
their foundation as if by a vortieose earth
quake. The sides of some frame buildings
are punctured and shattered rs if they had
been standing against battering rams. The
glass from broken windows lines the pave
ments. Broken street lamps are scattered
about and

where one looks, from the place where the

town, along the path up Main street, over
Marietta street, oil till it passed over the
Fair Ground out of town, are to be seen
scattered almost all kinds of debris imag-

The town to-day was thronged with

Wheeling people have been among the
number. An excursion party from Wheel

this evening.

juries seem to be the worst. When he saw
the storm coming he fled from the house
taking his mother, who was in feeble
health, with him TO seek a place of safety.
He reach u tree near the house and held
on to it, being blown round and round the
tree with his mother. The tree was snapped
by the force Ofthe wind, struck Mr.. Riley
crushing his ankle so that he will have to
have it amputate and seriously injuring
him about the chest. IL is almost a miracle
that more were not injured. The town
